Congratulations to the lad, he seems to take everything in his stride, wish him every success there. Interesting example - opts not to sit in system at Celtic, chooses Hearts as he’ll get a chance to play, and look how that ends up. A lesson for some of those young Rangers players who played yesterday in ‘special circumstances’ but are likely never to get a regular game.

Sooks Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Levein brought him back to Hearts so he must get some credit for that but as mentioned above he surely was not running things when Hickey was sold so how ever good or bad the deal turns out to be then that person will take the credit for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is That the same with Damour, whelean, Martin etc or was that all his fault? Id say the manager signing a player has more than 10% to play in it. I'd almost put it all on the manager and not just choose which players to put on them to suit a narrative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demonstrates that for a young Scottish player (even one on the books of his "boyhood heroes") there are much greater opportunities out there if they are open minded, ambitious and prepared to take some risks. If he sets an example to others that far outweighs whatever we get from the transfer fee. But I fear Aaron may be exceptional and the pull of the OF may prove too strong for most.

Thats the thing, I think we will argue over it all summer with no confirmation. And as others have said, its better for us if we do get a few million from sell on fees to make it out that we have got a 6 figure feel as selling clubs or players could try to use us getting extra millions to put prices up. I do hope the 15% figure is true, but if what an earlier poster confirms is true that is much lower then they are correct that its poor from the club. If we are going to sell a player like Hickey, the sell on fee becomes more important than the original fee (if the original is low.) Though I also think we are in a better position now to hold out for higher fees than we were two years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ccjambo1874 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 If the sell on fee is a decent chunk I do think the club is going the right way about it by not letting on what it is. Would only be detrimental to us in regards to signing or sourcing players as they'd know we'd have more ££ than we are letting on. At least if it's kept under wraps it puts us in a better position to negotiate. I'm quite content to live in the knowledge it might just be a fixed fee and if it shows in the accounts in our statements or after the summer window is concluded and all our business is done it'll be a bonus.

Batistuta87 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 For those asking about the sell-on fee, Joel Sked (Jambo journalist) and Laurie Dunsire from Hearts TV were on This Is My Story podcast discussing it. Sked said "is it 15, 20 %?" And Dunsure said "15". Not an impeccable source but about as close to the club as any of us on here will get. I doubt we'll publicly reveal what was agreed because clubs/players/agents will then know how much money we have and try to squeeze extra out of us. We'll find out when accounts are published I'd think. Savage said it would be a six figure fee probably not thinking he would go for quite as much as reported now. I think at the time Bologna were looking for £8M from Roma which would have given us £800-900k from 10-15%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
